To avoid that future, car companies have to start thinking of themselves as being in the "transportation services" business. The one that says we're in the car manufacturing and sales business are not going to survive the big disruptive transition that is clearly coming. Automakers are already adding features that cede some of a driver's control to computers in the name of safety or convenience. Features available in some luxury cars, such as cruise control that uses sensors to maintain a safe distance behind other vehicles or automatic parallel parking, are indicators of an industry starting to think about how we drive, not just what we drive.
